Nice and relaxing tour
Tanner_H, Dec 2023
Chill ride to and around Lobos Island on and very nice boat. Clear water for snorkeling and a beautiful beach spot to swim with sea lions.
Fiasco

Booked months before. Was asked to change departure time from pm to am. Showed up to the business (after we had looked for 30+ minutes for the place. No specific address or business name given to us. On day of excursion the business owner had us scheduled for the next day. Had not been paid our fee that Viator charged us. No reservation, no boat, no captain, etc. what a hassle, BUT the contracted business scraped together a pm excursion for us after many calls to get paid first. Fiasco!!
Response from Host, Apr 2023
Hi there, We are very sorry about the inconvenience you went through the day of your tour. However, we did give you a completely private Lobos Island tour in the afternoon, and these tours are usually just shared. Once again, we are sorry about this. And we hope you had fun in Ecuador!
Not for me

If you're looking for someone with the equipment you need to get out there (boat, snorkel/diving gear, food, etc), so you can do some exploring/diving, this is a great choice for you. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable about the area and wildlife, this is not the tour you want. It was an out-and-back with very little information about what makes the Galapagos unique. It wasn't a bad tour, but it wasn't what I was looking for (which was the second option, not the first)
Response from Host, Dec 2022
Hi Kimberly! I hope you are doing well. Tour Lobos Island is indeed a more exploring tour, if you are looking for a more informative one we always recommend either Tour 360 or León Dormido, you'll learn more about wildlife there :) Hopefully we see you again soon, so you can enjoy these other experiences with us! Have a great day
Very memorable and great experience

One of, if not the best, experiences I had in the Galapagos! The staff, led by tour guide Jessica, was amazing! Very professional and friendly! On the walking part of the tour we saw frigate birds and lots of blue footed boobies doing mating calls and dances. Snorkeling with the sea lions was crazy! Friendliest sea lions I experienced that would get right up in your face playing around. Not a ton of fish and other things in the water, but the sea lions made up for it. Then a great lunch and beautiful beach! Excellent day!
